39. Brexit Gets Everywhere

39. Brexit Gets Everywhere

No matter where you live in the world, you've probably been hearing about Brexit for the past three years. If you live in Britain, it's a never-ending news story that's in every newspaper you look at and every television show you watch, every day of the year. For those who have somehow avoided it, 'Brexit' is the process of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union, which was voted for in 2016 and is yet to happen in 2019.

The person who sent this request to Fridman obviously doesn't want the UK to leave, but Fridman knows better than to get involved in political debates. No matter what he did, half of the people in the deeply divided country would hate him for it. Instead, he's given us a picture of Boris Johnson desperately trying to learn how to use Photoshop, with former British Prime Minister David Cameron peering in at him through a window.

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
